Kabanata 51: Joining In

After Ye Jiayao got back from the restaurant last night, she was so tired that she immediately conked out as soon as her head hit the pillows. She had a good night's sleep so she was able to easily get up early in the morning. She went out to sweep the floor, clean the tables and chairs, before going to the kitchen to prepare ingredients for the breakfast meals to help out Li Erniang.

Since her reincarnation, she had completely kicked away her habit of sleeping in. It was a problem that couldn't be changed in her previous life, but the worry of surviving day by day fixed it.

By the time that Li Erniang and the waiters got up to do their work, the hall had already been swept clean of all fibers and dust, with the tiles gleaming. The tables and chairs were clean and neatly arranged, and the kitchen was already wafting out the scent of buns.

"Li Yao, you don't have to do this. You're a guest. How can I let you do this type of work?" the second lady gently chided.
